With the one two and three bottom plows I plow in 45 pace lands. If I can not see the past years dead furrow I start at the edge and pace out 15 paces and flag it on both ends and start the back furrow. (throw the furrow to the falg both ways) If I can see the dead furrow I throw my first back furrow to the center of the dead furrow and plow until I have a 45 pace plowed land. If the field has four or five dead furrows I start anywhere I happen to be when I can see where to drive. If someone else might help I might plow two or more rounds at each dead furrow so it ends up plowed the way I want it. When you have each dead furrow plowed 45 paces wide toward it you then have unplowed lands to plow between each plowed area.
Some times you will have a short land on one side if the field size was not laid out to those paces.(est. 3 foot step is a pace)
The idea of 45 pace lands is to keep the plow in the ground more than it is out of the ground on the ends.
